If Manning does miss the start, it would be the first time the
Colts started somebody at quarterback other than Manning since
Jim Harbaugh in 1997. Since being drafted in 1998, Manning has
started 208 consecutive games.

Exactly how long is Manning's streak? Consider that in the year
the streak started (1998), other starting quarterbacks in the
NFL included
Dan Marino, Steve Young, Randall Cunningham, John Elway, Warren
Moon, Kordell Stewart, and of course Ryan Leaf.

Since then, the Chicago
Bears lead the way, having used 17 different starting
quarterbacks. In all, 13 of the league's 32 teams have used at
least 10 starting quarterbacks in the last 13 seasons. The
Green
Bay Packers are the closest team to the Colts and Manning,
with just three starting QBs. Of course, they had a famous
quarterback with his own streak of consecutive games (sorry,
having trouble remembering his name).

Here are the number of starting quarterbacks used by each team
since Manning's streak began...
